You dont mention if it is ONLY occuring with the A12 or is it other tools as well? Only spring tools or Stiff ones? Regardless of that, the small X Wagon motor is controlled by the track ball and the bigger X Axis motor is controlled by the joystic

You might want to check the Xwagon bearings. We had the same issue with the TP9-UFP we ordered all the possible parts Xmotors small large, encoder, transducer, couplings etc. over 10K worth of parts. The only thing we didnt order was the actual x-wag

If you still have trouble with this problem try calling MyData and ask their opinion. I know this sounds simple and maybe you have tried already, but I have found in the past that there are certain techs who really know their stuff. Glen Gayton in B

You can leave the booster in the original position and mount two small fans directly underneanth it blowing upward. By leaving it in the original upright position you get quite a bit of air velocity in the small space between the booster and the mach

Yes that sounds worth a look - thanks. I am also wondering if there is a thermal issue - we had 27 degrees in here yesterday and I remember the Mydata guy telling me to put a desk fan onto the card frame in the summer. I did this last year - when I

Very interesting - esp that you have removed the temperature variable by being airconditioned. We defeinitely do not get strikes at 74 but do at 80 - but also we dont start the machine when its 80, that is the afternoon tempertaure on a rare hot day

Well yesterday was uncharacteristically warm for a British summer! I always have the panel off the end of the machine at all times and certainly used to have a large desk fan blowing into it - for some reason I stopped. I had a run of strikes yeste

Thanks for responding Fred and Peter. We have had the same damage to the tip occur even though our TP9-UFP sits in an air conditioned room (74 F / 23 C). I spoke with Matt at MyData (who was very helpful). He said that the X-axis bearings, the X-a

Sr. Tech, youre absolutely correct that the X-Wagon (pancake) motor is the one which will do final positioning when moving to a programmed position. The X Axis motor in back of the machine is used for rapid traverse of the axis. I was thinking more

I m looking to implement a maintenance program here at Exfo, I'm looking form the norms on the hand soldering iron (tip to ground resistance and Voltage linking). Thank
